    Flak 38 = badass. X 4 = Quadruple Badass. That crew gets an A+ for camouflage their position.

    Amazing video. Exciting that so many new rules of film are being found and processed. Always disturbing to see somebody get hit and go down. But after decades of watching the same film of Allied gunners shooting things down, very interesting to see the bad guys view.

      You mean you've never watched Die Deutsche Wochenschau, where there are tons of shots of 20mm Flaks conducting anti-aircraft fire? How do you explain that?

    Was that rounds impacting the hillside in the distance just in front of and all around the P-40?
    The footage is so grainy its hard to tell.
    Awesome footage either way though.

      Around when it smacks into the hillside, I can see puffs of smoke appearing out of the hill, like cannon fire smacking ground - looks to be the case they were firing all the way until it went in

      It depended on which country used theP-40,.There was the Kittyhawk,Tomahawk,Warhawk. They were workhorse, like the Hurricane in its' day.

      Warhawks were used extensively in the Mediterranean and Middle East theatre of World War II by USAAF units, including the 33rd, 57th, 58th, 79th, 324th and 325th Fighter Groups.
      Wiki, I know it stinks, but we flew them for the whole war. Same as the Wildcat.
